ORIGINAL WORK NAVER WEBTOON
YU-MI'S CELLS BY LEE DONG-g*n

EPISODE 15: LEVEL OF SATISFACTION

Wake up!

Wake up!

Wake up!

Wake up!

Wake up!

As soon as Yu-mi wakes up in the morning,

she is awarded one star.

The stars represent

her satisfaction in life.

Every morning,
she writes 2,000 characters,

and boards the bus before lunchtime.

Ba-bi, how about we have
mushroom noodles for lunch?

Uh...sorry, I've already got plans.

Again?

Hmmm, you seem to have
lunch appointments every day.

Well, my friend's in the area today, so...

Enjoy your lunch.

You think he's seeing someone, maybe?

You think so too, huh?

DAEHAN NOODLES

Ba-bi!

Did you wait long?

No, I only just got here
five minutes ago, too.

Let's go in. It's cold.

Unless she has other things
on her schedule,

Yu-mi has lunch with Ba-bi.

So you'll be working
this weekend too, are you?

Until when?

No one knows.

I hear our department head
was called on the carpet again.

Our entire team is walking
on thin ice these days.

You were wise in leaving the company.

Yes. I think so, too.

Oh what? I thought you'd comfort me.

You think it's easy, earning a salary?

So hang in there, Mr. Yoo Ba-bi.

I almost forgot. Did I tell you about him?

You know, Mr. Oh from Sales.

What about Mr. Oh?

I thought he's off to study in the US.

Well, it turns out that
the real reason is...

his fiancee scammed him, and...

He got scammed?

Oh my.

-Yu-mi.
-But how could she...

-Later.
-But how...

Lunchtime is when the stars
get recharged the most.

-You found a nice place.
-Yes, and it was new to me, too.

I'll see you, then.

What time does your class finish today?

-About four o'clock?
-Then do you want to wait for me?

Shall we go home together?

-I told you I'm seeing a friend today.
-Right.

-I'll call you, then.
-Sure.

-See you.
-Bye.

What is it?

I'm really leaving now...

All right. Bye!

Oh, boy.

Hey! Yu-mi!

Ruby.

Hey, what are you doing here?

Well, uh...

Hmmm? I think I know why you're here.

You missed me, didn't you? Huh?

Yes!

Ruby missed you, too!

Me, too. Have you been well?

No, obviously! No!

Hey, I-da! Yu-mi's here.

Oh what? Yu-mi! What a surprise!

Lunchtime is when the stars
get recharged the most.

However, it does entail high risk.

I take it that you've all been well?

How's Mr. Nam doing?

We're all the same.
All the same, every day.

Ugh, it's so boring.

You've glowed up, though.
Is it nice, not having to go to work?

Nice? Please.

I've no income,
and the future looks bleak.

So it's the same for you, too?

See, Ruby...

now that she's a year older,
her heart would start racing

for no reason at all,

and whenever she sees lovey-dovey couples...

-It's cute.
-I just can't stand the sight of them.

-Hang on, what was that?
-Huh?

Even until you left us,
you hated the idea of relationships.

When did I?

Why, you...
you're seeing someone, aren't you?

What are you talking about?

Like I'd have time for that.

Then again, if you were,
Ruby would know about it.

No, you might not
know about it, who knows?

I mean, how can you
expect to know everything?

I guess you still don't know how
sensitive Ruby's radar is, but...

Over there!

See Mr. Yoon from Sales?

He has a thing going on
with Eun-hye in the HR.

Really?

And the guy behind him is
the receptionist's boyfriend.

Oh what? She told me she's single!

They're all dating in secret, duh.

Apparently, someone saw them kiss
on the emergency stairs recently!

-Oh my goodness!
-They're so crazy.

I know, right?

So how do you know all this?

I have my sources.

All the couples of Daehan Noodles
have been detected by Ruby's radar.

You're really something.

And I've some breaking news
which I'll only share with you girls.

Sure, what is it?

Ba-bi got a girlfriend!

-What, really?
-Yes!

-Really?
-It's the latest buzz.

Oh. Really?

Who is it?

There's a rumor that
she's someone from our company.

But my intuition tells me she's not.

I do have a hunch as to
who that may be, though.

Ah! Maybe it's the girl who rejected him.

No, his ex.

No!

You startled me.

Yu-mi, why yell that out just now?

Because that just doesn't make sense!

I mean, why would he see his ex again?

Someone saw them together last month!

So in the end, they...

-Got back together!
-I'm telling you, no!

But Yu-mi, how would you know
that's not the case?

Because I've heard some things myself.

And apparently, he's completely over her.

Come on, you never know!

Ruby has a point.
You never know, you know.

I say he'll be announcing
his engagement soon!

I'd say so myself!

-Oh wow, I can't believe this!
-I'm so amused.

You should've told me sooner.
Gosh, I'm jealous.

Good luck, Yu-mi!

-See you again, Yu-mi.
-You guys hang in there, too.

Oh, once I find out
who Ba-bi's girlfriend is,

I'll call you right away.

-Sure, okay.
-We're off.

Bye!

Bye!

In the end, today Yu-mi lost as many stars

as she'd charged them over lunchtime.

PLOT

There are two ways to draft up a plot.

One is to do so,
by writing a clear outline,

and the other is to do so without one.

With the former,
there is the advantage that

your story is much more stable
from the beginning.

However, you may also
find yourself trapped,

meaning your ideas are blocked
by your own story.

-On the other hand...
-On weekend afternoons,

Yu-mi attends writing classes.

Hello.

Oh, hello.

After class, she likes to drop by
at a local bookstore.

SOON-DOL'S BOOKS

MAURITIUS BROWN

After spending the entire day
doing what she loves

and catching up with people
she wanted to see,

that afternoon,
Yu-mi filled all five stars.

But when all those stars are filled up,

waves of anxiety rush in, all of a sudden.

I'm kind of anxious.

I mean, how long can we expect
this happiness to last, right?

Especially when we have no income.

And we don't have much left
in our bank account, either.

What if we don't end up
debuting this year?

I mean, all of Yu-mi's colleagues
are getting promoted.

Is she really going to be okay like this?

Jeez, I'm just so, so anxious!

Still, at least I get to do what I want.

It's okay. You're just fine, Yu-mi.

Just enjoy it.

It's very important to maintain the stars.

Yu-mi! Yu-mi!

Especially when she's catching up
with her old classmates

in a long while.

Ta-da! What do you think, Yu-mi?

Hey, that's cute.

It is, isn't it?

Where did you get it? It looks expensive.

No, it's cheap.
It was only about two pounds?

Pounds?

You got it in the UK?

Yeah, while passing by Notting Hill.

Notting Hill? As in,
the Notting Hill in London?

Yeah, while I was on
a business trip there.

Oh wow, that's awesome.

So you go on business trips
to London, too?

Of course! I mostly go to Europe.

See, there are quite some
business trips at our company

for manager-level and up.

Manager?

So you got a promotion!

Yup, I did.

Oh what? When you think about it,
she's just bragging!

Ah... How can she brag so naturally, too?

Oh! I never gave you
my business card, did I?

Goodness, look at me.

It's hot off the print.

Oh wow.

I guess that means
you got a big pay rise, too.

A little.

Oh wow! Eun-i, congratulations.

Oh, come on. Everyone is
getting promoted these days.

It's about time for you too, isn't it?
How are things at your company?

Well, uh...

To tell you the truth,
I left the company last year.

What?

Wait, you left the company?

Uh...

but why? Um...

Did you move elsewhere?

No, I just quit.

You just quit your job?

What do you plan to do?

Well, there are some things
I'd like to learn, so...

Wait, learn what?

Well, something I've always wanted to do.

And what is that?

I'm thinking of writing something.
So I'm taking lessons.

As in... novels?

Yeah. But that's if it all works out.

That was a bolt
out of the blue, wasn't it?

But hey, this place is really nice.

So you're currently unemployed?

Please call me an aspiring writer.

In other words, you're unemployed, right?

I guess so, yeah.

Hey, Yu-mi... this isn't
something to laugh about.

I mean, did you forget how old we are now?

What, you just quit your job,
when you're not even in your 20s?

You could always write after work!

That's true, but...

I can't fully commit myself to it, so...

But still...

What are you going to do?

How could you be so reckless
to make such a...

Eun-i, stop.

Seeing you act like that...

is making me anxious, too.

I don't believe this.

Huh? Dark clouds are looming,
all of a sudden!

I told you I'm not sure about this!

Eun-i is right. Yu-mi was too reckless!

She could've always kept her job
and attended night classes...

We've just done something
absolutely crazy!

What are we going to do now?

This is no good. Change the subject, now!

Oh, that's right. Eun-i,

didn't you say you went on a blind date?

Do your parents know?

Are they okay with you quitting your job?

Well, they just told me to
think about it carefully...

Why a writer, again?

Do you know how hard it is
to make it as a writer?

Didn't I tell you?
My friend, Seung-ah's sister?

-No.
-Well, her sister

quit a respectable job
and just kept writing and writing,

until she was forty-five
and still yet to be picked up.

So she's now seeing a counselor
for her depression.

She even sold off the studio
that her parents bought for her.

No house to her name,
no husband, no nothing!

I mean, I totally understand
why she's on anti-depressants.

Oh, and there's another case I know.

One of my upperclassmen was
trying to write a horror fiction,

when she became possessed
by some spirit herself!

Don't tell me, you're not
writing horror fiction, are you?

In the end, Yu-mi lost all of her stars.

Argh!

Where am I? In paradise?

I've lost all my energy...

I'm feeling dizzy...

Guys, get a grip on yourself!
We need to look after Yu-mi!

Oops, I'm so sorry. Let me just send this.

I've so many things to review
and approve now,

now that I'm a manager.

Am I... making a mistake?

Yu-mi, who longer had any stars,
quickly lost her spirit.

It was so much fun,
catching up in a long while.

Let's see each other more often, Yu-mi!

Sure.

Gosh, the weekends
just fly past, don't they?

I hear it's going to be freezing
starting tomorrow.

I'm already worried about
how I'll get to work, aren't you?

Yeah, you're right.

Gosh. Anyway, I hate winter the most.

How to get to work?

But I'm not going to work tomorrow.

Oh, right.

Yu-mi, who's currently unemployed,
is unaffected by the Monday blues.

Eh! So, uh... Eun-i.

The temperatures will be dropping
to minus 10 degrees Celsius

tomorrow morning!

What are you going to do?
That's crazy, huh?

Make sure to dress warm
when you go to work tomorrow!

Ugh, I don't want to go to work already...

Ugh.

Please say no more.

All right? Dress warmly.

-Sure.
-Else you'll catch a cold.

Yeah...

Good luck getting to work tomorrow!

Strangely enough, the theory of relativity

also applies to satisfaction levels.

EPISODE 16: THE BATTLE

Who is it at this time?

Who is it?

Yu-mi, it's me.

You never told me you were coming.

Whoa! What is that?

Is that a pig?

It's for you. Take it.

-What?
-Go on.

Oh my!

My goodness!

Oh my gosh.

Thank you so much.

But why a pig?

Hey, she saw a pig in her dream!
Isn't that really auspicious?

-So what are you supposed to mean?
-Oink.

I'm sure it's something very auspicious.

Oink, oink.

Oink, oink, oink.

What does it mean? A conception dream?

Come on, tell me. Just to me, please?

Don't be shy.

-Yikes!
-Argh!

Are you out of your mind?
Give me that pig!

Oink.

-Oink.
-Aw.

Dreams about pigs symbolize money!

Let's go buy a lottery ticket.

No,

I'm sure that's got to mean
achieving something.

Ha! Achieve what, when she's out of work?

Isn't today the day they announce
the results of the writing contest?

That's right.

The contest!

Could the pig in her dream mean...

Come on, no way.

Actually, no. You never know.

among the list of winning works

Make it spacious,

so our Writer Cell will fit right in!

Hey! Must you really do this
over one failure?

Hmpf!

Now that we've tried it,

Or how much more do you want to try?

Should I have just listened to Mom?

I should've just worked hard

What are you up to, Yu-mi?

I'm at home. Where are you?

Can I see you today?

I'm going to knock off
straight from a meeting.

Ba-bi, I'm so sorry.

I need to finish what I'm writing.

It needs to be submitted
by today, you see.

Oh, then you should finish it.

I can do after 7!

I should be done by then! By 7, I mean.

Then should I get takeouts
and go to your place?

Let's save time.

Sounds good!

Ba-bi!

-Did you finish your writing?
-Yes, come in.

My boyfriend is here!

Yu-mi, you live with your parents?

Yeah, did I not tell you?

Just kidding!

Look at you chickening out.

Come in.

Oh man...

Yu-mi!

So you came right on time,
at 7 o'clock sharp.

Actually...

I got here at ten to, but waited outside.

Why? You should've just come in.

I didn't want to disturb you
while you were writing.

Aw, Mr. Yoo Ba-bi...

So you're considerate, too?
What is it that you don't have?

I got some packed meals for yours.
Your favorite.

-What?
-Stir-fried pork.

I guess my dream turned out to be true.

Ba-bi bringing pig to me.

-What?
-It's nothing. Wow, this looks yum!

So weren't we supposed to
meet up tomorrow?

You came to console me, didn't you?

Console you for what?

Didn't you call me because
you knew I didn't make the contest?

You didn't make it? I didn't know.

Liar.

I honestly didn't know.

But isn't it to be expected,
since this is only your first try?

Don't tell me,
you're not disappointed, are you?

Of course not.
I'm more fired up now, is how I'd put it.

Good!

Hey, you put it down today.

Your bangs.

Oh, it's because I came over in a rush.

Why the rush?

In case you change your mind.

So naughty.

Ah... it's too bright.

I'm powerless if it's 100 lux or brighter!

I want to be naughtier, okay?

What? You want us to turn off the lights?

All right, just leave it to us.

Right Hand, do you think you can do it?

Yes, of course!

I'll go turn off the lamp
and come right back.

But Yu-mi has her eyes closed
because she's kissing right now.

Is it really possible,
with zero visibility?

It's possible.

We're capable of plugging in power cables,

and even USBs in the dark!

So this is nothing. Go, Yu-mi!

Hmm... is this it? Or this?

Ah, it's this right here.

Success!

You're the best, Right Hand!

Who is that?

Looks like someone's here.

But who could it be, at this time?

Is that Dad?

-Not falling for it again.
-No, Dad, he...

He said he's coming up to Seoul today...

Who is it?

Yu-mi! It's me, Dad!

What are you doing? Hurry up and open up.

Dad.

Dad's here, Yu-mi.

Oh what? You said
you won't drop by this time.

Well...

Your grandmother asked me
to bring you so much, and...

-Oh really?
-So I brought you some kimchi

-and some oysters, too.
-I see.

Do you have room in your fridge?

Yes I do, but...

She was worried you might not be
eating as well,

now that you quit your job,
and packed plenty.

I know you like oyster pancakes, so I...

Hello, it's nice to meet you.

Oh, sure... but who... who are you?

My name is Yoo Ba-bi.

Yes!

Dad, this is my boyfriend.

Wow!

Yu-mi's... boyfriend?

Look, think about how old Yu-mi is now.

She's an adult! She's not a kid anymore.

He works at Daehan Noodles.

In their marketing department,
where I was at, and...

I told you, didn't I?
That my dad isn't scary at all!

Oh, yes.

Dad, watch your back. Watch your back.

That's right. I'm a father
who's open-minded...

Open-minded...

Nice to meet you. I'm Yu-mi's father.

Yes, it's nice to meet you.

Let's put all our strength into it!

Handshake of Fury! How's that, you punk?

"Handshake of Fury." A terrifying skill

which you can use on your opponent

to imply "I don't like you",
when you can't tell them directly.

Oh no, his hand's about to break!

Shouldn't we counterattack?

Otherwise Ba-bi may lose
his right hand for good!

Don't overreact!
Now is the time to just bear it.

But his hand's starting to cramp...

He's Yu-mi's father. Yu-mi's father!

Don't you realize it's the end,

if we don't make a good first impression?

-Ba-bi, just grin and bear it!
-Ba-bi, just grin and bear it!

Are you going to be shaking hands all day?

I was just happy to see him...

You go wash your hands first.

I bet they smell like oysters.

Shall I?

The bathroom's that way.

Um, Ba-bi... this is my mom.

So you're Yu-mi's boyfriend?

Yes, hello. I'm Yoo Ba-bi.

Gosh, it's so nice to meet you!
I'm Yu-mi's mother.

Oh wow, you're so handsome.

I mean, I thought you were a movie star!

Thank you.

Gosh, we turned up unannounced,
not knowing you were here.

I'm so sorry. This must be
awkward for you, isn't it?

Oh no, please don't say that.

Yu-mi never tells us about
these kinds of things, you see...

By the way, will it be all right
if I talk casually?

Yes, of course.
Whichever you find comfortable.

-Then may I?
-Of course.

Gosh, you're so tall and handsome.

-Thank you, you flatter me.
-Not at all.

Ugh, why is Mom talking like that?

I'm scared.

I'm scared that Mom will overreact,
and start calling Ba-bi

her future son-in-law, or something!

No! She won't, right?

Mom, please!

First, let's get Ba-bi out of here.

Um, Mom? Ba-bi needs to go now
because he's really busy...

Yu-mi, go bring us some fruits.

You have fruits, don't you?

Yeah...

We can't. Yu-mi can win against
her mom when she's in Daughter Mode,

but now she's set to Girlfriend mode.

Well, have a seat.

First, let me grab your...

Oh no, that's fine. My husband will do it.
Have a seat, have a seat!

-So you said your name was Ba-bi?
-Yes, it's Yoo Ba-bi.

Oh, I see.

You're yet to have dinner, right?

We were just about to.

-Oh really?
-Yes.

Right now, Yu-mi's powerless
in front of her mother.

Because she doesn't want Ba-bi to see

what she's like in Daughter mode.

Yu-mi! Ba-bi says
he's staying for dinner, too.

What are you talking about?
Ba-bi's busy, I said.

No, he says he just happens to have time.

And that he's yet to have dinner.

We brought oysters, abalones, octopus...

Plenty of seafood, your favorite.

Honey!

Ba-bi will be joining us for dinner.
Isn't that great?

Really?

Oh, uh... no.

I don't always have to.

I don't want to intrude,
so I'll be leaving now.

Why don't you stay? For dinner, huh?

Mr. Yoo Ba-bi.

Oh, yes...

Yes, then I'll stay for dinner.

Is it really okay to stay for dinner?

Yu-mi's father looks like
a former boxing champion.

He won't beat us to death
in the middle of dinner, right?

That's it! Take him down!

That's it!

Rocky!

Rocky!

Take him down!

Pound, pound, pound!

And it's game over!

So, do you work out?

Yes.

I like to go for a jog.

So you're a jogger?

We got close
by jogging in the park together.

Then... what's your marathon time?

Come on, is that so important?

It is important to me, yes!

I've finished a half-marathon
in two hours, once.

Then... do you know how to swim?

Yes, in freestyle...

Oh what? Who can't swim
freestyle these days?

Oh, and backstroke,
breastroke, and butterfly, too.

-How many pull-ups?
-About 20 at a time...

-What about push-ups?
-I can do 50 in a minute.

-And sit-ups?
-60 a minute.

-Then what's your 100-meter record?
-13 seconds.

-Bench press?
-100 kg.

What, that much?

Oh my! So you're good
at all kinds of sports, too?

There's nothing you can't do, is there?

Goodness, why won't this come off?

I'll do it, Mom.

Ba-bi, could you help me with this?

Oh, sure.

Gosh, this just won't come off...

I'll do it.

Ah, it won't budge.

-Yu-mi, do you have scissors?
-Yeah.

Right, we should just use scissors...

Out of the way, come on!

-Can't you even manage this?
-They layered it, so it's quite hard.

-You just watch me.
-Dad, I've the scissors right here.

Hey, no need!

You can just rip it off.

-Dad, just use these! The scissors.
-No!

Hold on.

Honey! Honey, you need to
watch your blood pressure!

-Stop that!
-Oh, dad.

Oh my!

Jeez. Hold on.

Wait!

Oh no!

Honey!

-Are you all right?
-There you go!

Hey, what if you bench press 100 kg, huh?

-When you can't even open that?
-Jeez.

Gosh, he completely destroyed the box.

I mean, what is this?

-Here, have some more.
-Thank you.

Gosh, I haven't had abalone
and small octopus in a long time.

I'm so happy!

Eat up, sweetie.

You eat up too, Ba-bi.

Sure.

Yu-mi must be a good cook
because she takes after you.

Oh gosh.

Is there anything you don't eat?

No, I'm not particularly picky.

You say you're not picky,
but you don't eat

sea cucumber and sea urchin, is it?

Pardon?

You won't even touch
the sea cucumber and sea urchin.

Why? Are they too fishy for you?

Oh my. Oh really?

You should've told me so
if you don't like them.

Ba-bi's just mixed sea urchin
into his rice.

I like all kinds of seafood.

Hey. Why are you being so mean
when he's eating so well?

Then what about spoon worms?

He's eating some now, isn't he?

Then what about tripes?

Dip them in sesame oil,
and they're the best.

-Then what about skate?
-It's my favorite dish.

Damn.

You look so princely so we were worried

you'd be picky with food.

But that's not the case at all, is it?

Gosh, it's so nice to see that.

There's nothing I don't eat too, you know!

Which explains your pot belly.

Dad, go on and eat.

We thought Mom would be the problem,
but it's Dad who's proving to be

more of a problem!

Shouldn't we tell him to stop?

I'm anxious about how much more
he'll embarrass us!

I'll do the dishes.

Oh no, no! Just leave them there.

Oh, no.

It's the least I can do in return
for that wonderful meal.

Gosh, you're so well-mannered, too!

I would love to have you
as my future son-in...

Yu-mi, how about we have coffee
and tidy up?

Yu-mi!

-Yu-mi!
-Yes?

-What is it, Dad?
-Your shelf is loose.

-Is it?
-Yes.

If you leave it like that,
it can be dangerous.

-Go bring me the toolbox.
-Hey, it's okay.

I'll just call someone to
fix that up later.

Go get the toolbox.
Why bother calling someone,

when you have Dad?

Go on and bring it quick.

-All right. Be careful!
-Of course.

Oh man, this is...

Sir, I'll do it.

Why?

-Pardon?
-Why should you do it,

when I'm here?

Who do you think I am?
Do you even know who I am?

Who am I, huh?

-Yu-mi's father...
-I'm the owner of

Yu-mi's Hardware Shop, all right?

The owner of Yu-mi's Hardware Shop,

which I opened the year Yu-mi was born!

And I'm saying I want to fix
the shelf for my dear daughter,

so why should you butt in, Mr. Yoo Ba-bi?

Oh, I'm sorry.

Dad!

Why are you being like this?

Just because you run


and bench press 100 kg,
do you think you can fix everything?

If you've never done this kind of thing,
you shouldn't dare to, all right?

And you think just anyone
can handle tools?

Tools are much more sensitive
and fragile than...

Whoa!

-Dad!
-Sir!

Dad!

-Dad...
-Are you all right?

Dad just fell!
Dad!

Honey! Oh, I just knew it.

You'd been seriously overreacting, and...

Whoa, wait! Just stay right there.

I think I sprained my back.

-Oh no...
-Dad!

-No! Don't touch me!
-Try stretching your legs.

YU-MI'S HARDWARE SHOP

Sir, please bear with me.

Oh gosh...

Oh gosh.

Where are you taking me?
My truck's over there.

-Uh, no. Let me take you in your car.
-But...

My car's right over there.

-But...
-Yes.

But...

Please bear with me.
The hospital's not too far away.

That...

shelf.

Fix it for me.

It's...

dangerous.

Yes, I will.

Am I not heavy?

Oh, it's fine. I bench press 100 kg.

I...

I was like you, once.

That night, Yu-mi's father
finally accepted he's pushing sixty,

and finally accepted Ba-bi
as his daughter's boyfriend.

EPISODE 17: THE GREAT ADVENTURE

YU-MI'S HARDWARE SHOP

-Oh gosh...
-Stop making such a fuss!

Hey, do it slowly! Slowly!
What's with you?

They even gave you painkillers,
so it shouldn't be too bad!

But I'm saying it hurts, because it hurts!

What is this,
on our first meeting with him?

Jeez...

I'm so embarrassed,
I don't know how to face Ba-bi...

Oh gosh!

This is all your fault!

Watch where you're sitting!

Hold on. Ouch...

Geez, you always say
everything's my fault.

That's right, I should give Yu-mi a call.

Damn it.

This is all that Ba-bi
or Shba-bi's fault... Jeez...

Hey, Mom. Did you get home okay?
How's Dad doing?

Your dad's fine. He's just making a fuss.

Don't you worry about him,
but you just do your thing.

What's Ba-bi doing?

He's fixing my shelf for me.

-What?
-Well,

apparently Dad told him to fix it,
no matter what.

So he's busy right now.

Oh my goodness.

I don't believe this guy!

I wasn't going to come see you
after you told me you quit your job,

but you've been forgiven.

Even though you quit your job,

you were wise with your choice in men.

Mom, aren't you a bit too shallow?

Hey, if I was shallow, you think
I would've married your father?

I guess you're right.

I'm saying I like him for
how he is on the inside.

He's good-mannered, neat,

and knows exactly
what he should and shouldn't say.

I couldn't find a single flaw!

No wonder your father
was unusually quiet about him.

I'm glad to hear that.

He was pretty charming.

You're right on that one.

Oh, and he seems to come from
a good family, too.

-Family?
-Yeah!

It seems like his father runs a business.

He does? Ba-bi never told me
anything like that.

He told me earlier.

That his father runs a business.

What else did you talk about,
while I wasn't there?

He said it's just a small business,

but his princely vibe tells me
he's a rich boy.

Come on, I know he's princely,
but you got it wrong.

Ba-bi's never mentioned
anything like that to me.

That's why he's of good character.
He's not c*ck when he's rich.

Anyway, ask him what his family does.

Oh, forget it.

Is it so important what his father does?

Of course! Why wouldn't it be?

Oh wow, look at you talking.

Yu-mi!

It must be all done now.
Ba-bi's calling me.

-I'll call you later.
-Sure, all right.

Yu-mi, you should be okay to
put heavy things on it now.

Ah, that's so nice. Thanks for that.

Oh. What about your father?
Did he get home okay?

Yes, he's fine.

He's in no pain at all,
after they gave him an injection.

Gosh. I'm glad to hear it.

You really scored big
with my mom, by the way.

-Really?
-Yeah.

She says you're the best!

I'm so glad to hear it.

That's right. My mom put you
in an awkward spot earlier

for asking so many weird questions, huh?

No, not at all.

I understand when I think
about it from her perspective.

Gosh. How is my boyfriend this perfect?

I mean, how could this be?

Stop teasing me.

By the way, Ba-bi...

-Mom, she...
-Yes?

BIG SIS

You should take your call first.

-One moment.
-Sure.

Hey, Sis.

Let me call you back.

Well, I was a bit busy
with work last night.

Come on, not this again.

I told you I've no intention to
inherit Father's business.

Well, that's what he thinks.

I'm happy with the way things are now.

And could you please stop
using the word, "heir?"

"Heir?"

He clearly said, "heir!"

What is this?

So this is your father?

Yeah.

Hey, wait. Woah.

He looks great for his age.
You take after him, Ba-bi.

I'm not so happy to hear that.

-Why not?
-My father and I don't really get along.

-Why not?
-Look at this.

This is from when I went camping, and...

Beautiful weather, huh?

Yeah.

Did he move out
because he had a row with his father?

To be completely independent?

That must be it, yes.

No way...

it can't be.

Oh gosh...

But what if our suspicions
are right? What then?

There's no way
Yu-mi can handle his family.

If you want to know for sure,
do the yoghurt test!

The yoghurt test?

Yes, the yoghurt test.

If he licks off the yoghurt lid,
he's an average citizen.

But if he just chucks it away,
he's an heir.

Now that's the surest way
to distinguish between

the rich and the average folks.

That's rubbish, stupid!

You're so pathetic to be
suggesting such ideas...

PLAIN YOGHURT

and so are we, to actually execute it.

-Ba-bi!
-Yeah?

I have yoghurt. Do you want some?

Sounds good.

Thanks.

Here we go, let's start the yoghurt test!

Hold on! What do you think you're doing?

You want to lick off the yoghurt lid?
In front of Ba-bi?

Doesn't it embarrass you?
To do that in front of him?

I won't make any allowances
on these matters!

And no using spoons either, all right?

You know what I'm like, don't you?

Now watch, Ba-bi! This is who Yu-mi is.

A common folk who licks off
the lid of her yoghurt!

Oh what?

Didn't you say he's an heir
if he just chucks it away?

I, Hungry Cell, can vouch.

That Yoo Ba-bi is...

the heir to a rich family!

I'm so hungry despite that huge dinner.

Look at you.

Is it because of all that running
with your father on my back?

Shall we get something?

Yu-mi.

What's on your mind?

Ba-bi.

I'm sorry, but...

I happened to overhear
your conversation on the phone.

What?

May I ask what this "heir" thing is about?

So you found out in the end.

It's true that of his many children,
Father named me as his successor.

But I've no intention to
inherit our family business.

I don't agree with
his business philosophy, either.

See, I like my work right now.

Can I leave it at that for now?

Sure.

I see.

Let me go get something.

I'm really hungry. What would you like?

Anything. Whatever you want is fine.

All right. I'll be right back.

So it's true, then? He's really an heir?

I see, Ba-bi is a rich young master
who disagrees with his father.

Yes, no wonder!

He had all the qualities of a hero
in romance novels.

I'm so inspired.

So, so inspired!

From then on, Yu-mi's head
became a mess with

all her wild imagination.

Ready...

...action!

CHEAPSKATE CELL AS "YU-MI"

EMOTIONAL CELL AS "BA-BI'S FATHER"

Take this, and leave my son.

Cut! Cut! Hey, Yu-mi!

Don't start counting how much is in there!

What do you think you're doing?

Don't you have pride?

But I was curious to see
how much he put in there.

Go by the script, all right?

Gosh. Sorry.

-Oh my!
-Once you take it from him,

rip it into pieces, got it?

Got it.

YUMI FILM

Take this, and leave my son.

No! I don't need
something like this, thank you.

You won't want to rip that
if I told you how much is in there.

Really? How much is in there?

Hey!

I just knew it.

Take this, and leave my son.

I'm sorry, but you are no match
for my son, young lady.

He may have left home
to rebel against me, but...

in the end, he'll inherit
my business as my heir.

I'm sorry.

But I can't break up with him.

Did you not hear what I just said?

Or do you, the daughter
of a hardware shop owner,

think you can marry my son?

This isn't a matter of
my father's hardware shop

and your business,

it's strictly between Ba-bi and I.

Mr. Yoo, I...

How dare you talk back at me?

How dare the likes of you try
and set foot into our household?

When you're a daughter of
a hardware shop owner,

and out of work, too!

You think our families
are on the same level?

That's it, yes! I'm loving the tension.

-Yes! That's what I'm talking about!
-But I love Ba-bi!

I've never seen Writer Cell work so hard.

I think she's more cut for
writing dramas, not novels.

What do I do? What do I do now?

I don't think I can handle this,
so how can I keep seeing him?

Who is it?

Yu-mi, it's me. The heir.

Sorry I took so long.

I went out pretty far.

I was craving topokki all of a sudden.

You like topokki, don't you?

Yes, of course.

Try this.

This is the most popular place
from my hometown,

and you'll be surprised once you taste it.

Uh...

Yu-mi, look at this.

Yeah?

Look at the name of this place.

"Ba-bi's Snacks?"

Oh wow.

It's funny, isn't it?

"Yu-mi's Hardware Shop,"
and "Ba-bi's Snacks..."

Right.

What a coincidence that
it's called "Ba-bi's..."

Hold on, I'm onto something.

I'm onto something!

Ba-bi,

don't tell me...

Did you catch on?

I'm the heir to a topokki place.

Are you disappointed that
I'm not really a chaebol...

Oh my gosh! How could this be?

I can't believe my boyfriend is
the heir to a topokki place!

I mean, this is so perfect!

Are you being sarcastic,
because you're disappointed?

No, I'm really happy!

That you're the heir to a topokki place!

You'll be happier once you try some.
It's that good.

I'm so relieved. Oh...

-Are you?
-Yeah.

Right Hand, do you think
you can do it again this time?

Of course! Just leave it to me.

Success!

Go Yu-mi!

After switching the lamp off with success,

Yu-mi's right hand didn't return home
but deviated from its orbit...

...and started to act wild.

Oh what?

Right Hand, what are you doing?
Return home, immediately!

Just leave it.

They're doing heck of a good job!

Look where the Right Hand is headed.

They're headed for Ba-bi's Spine Valley.

Looks like they're about to go on a hike!

Go on a hike?

Her right hand right now is...

being brave, doing what it should
in Yu-mi's subconsciousness!

INVOLUNTARILY: REFERS TO CELLS ACTING
INDEPENDENTLY WITHOUT YU-MI'S ORDERS

What's wrong with Right Hand?
Why isn't it moving?

Hurry up and advance! Everyone's waiting.

Wait!

That's the Octopus Hug!

"Octopus Hug?"

Her right hand's been trapped by
Ba-bi's octopus hug.

Now there's no way for it
to reach his Spine Valley!

Mic test! Right Hand Cell,
can you hear me?

Return to home, immediately!

We cannot have you stuck out there!

Mic test, I hear you fine.
But there's no way for me to return.

The way back to the HQ is...

However, I do see
a large satellite nearby.

A large satellite nearby?

How about I land there first?

And I'm out!

That's... don't tell me!

That's planet H2!

Hold on.

Is this the right order?

Can we land there, really?

Isn't this too fast?

Uh... what's planet H2?

Left Buttock.

Buttock...

In every crisis,
is a moment of opportunity.

Don't miss this chance, Right Hand!

Land right away!

Roger. I'll attempt to land.

Don't forget!

That everyone is behind you
in your great adventure...

You cells! Isn't it about time
you get your head on,

now that we failed to make the debut?

We should let her sleep, so she can
write something again tomorrow.

Why are you even keeping her awake, and...

This is a historical moment.

Don't say anything.

This is Right Hand. This is Right Hand!

Right Hand!

What's your current position?

Wow!

I'm at H2, the landing was a success.

We did it, yes!

I could just die right now...

On February 2022,

The Right Hand Cell made
a solo landing on planet H2.

This will go down in the history
of Yu-mi and Ba-bi's relationship.

Rational Cell, wake up!

Come on, what is it?
Today's a Saturday, isn't it?

I think Yu-mi's looking
rather ugly right now.

-What?
-It's the morning,

so I think she may look like
a mess right now.

I want to check how she looks.

I think her phone's right behind Ba-bi.

Can you use that to check?

I can't reach it.

Try and get closer, then.

But be careful not to wake Ba-bi up.

What do you think you're doing?

Seriously!

Why are you all so busy from the morning?

Hey, just what are you thinking?

Woo-hoo! I can't lose, then.

Ugh, what's with him?

Let's knock him out
with a tranquilizer g*n.

You're trying to put me to sleep, are you?

What, me? Naughty Cell?

It's the morning! Oh!

Success! He's been knocked out!

Are you sure he's not dead?

Hey... hey!

Breathe, will you?

Hurry up and see how she looks right now.

See?

Her face is all puffy,
and she's a complete mess.

Let's wash her face before Ba-bi wakes up.

The house is a mess, too.

Let's clean it up before Ba-bi wakes up.

Yu-mi.

Did I wake you? Sorry.

I'll go get coffee. You stay in bed.

Today's a Saturday, right?
Let's sleep some more.

On some mornings,
you wake up with five stars.

BA-BI'S SNACKS

RIGHT HAND CELL LANDS ON H2 PLANET ALONE

Last summer, Ba-bi was transferred
to our Jeju branch.

I miss you.

Ah, Mr. Nam!

Do you want to come back?

Of course we'd love to!

I'm on my way to the airport.

I have news for you.

Who is that?

Why is she getting out of Ba-bi's car?

She's our intern,
who lives in this neighborhood.

She's cute.

She's so lovely.

So, uh... Da-eun's really cute.
